“But you look at the Republicans in Washington, it has long been my frustration that they’re just the opposite. They’ll scream, they’ll rant, they’ll rave. Talk radio hosts that are associated with them will scream, they’ll rant, they’ll rave. They’ll take a harsh, shrill tactic, the opposite of what Reagan did. And then when it’s number-crunching time, they’re liberals. They’re liberals. Let me make this point. They’ll scream and yell and insult the president. They’ll scream and yell and insult everybody else. […] They always talk so tough, they offend people, but they never follow up. If they followed up with conservative policies — pay down the debt over the past decade — I would be a bit more forgiving of their shrillness. But they’re shrill, and there’s nothing to back it up. There’s no real good conservative policy to back it up.”
